Been a bit distracted for drawing the last couple days. That and being too intent on doing specific sketch projects or none at all.
Must remember to let myself doodle.

@sungo agreed. I love seeing the cool shit I can’t do, just because it reminds me how much awesome is in the world.

I probably shouldn’t be surprised that four hours or so of sleep has me moving slow today.
Worthwhile thread reacting & responding to a high-rhetoric, low-fact news special on Seattle homelessness that’s been widely shared.

The paper version of today’s sketch was twenty minutes while drinking first coffee.
The Krita version is at about an hour now and a long ways to go. Good news, though: I’m learnding!

I see they rejected my Episode IX title suggestion “The Problem With Porgs” which sure was a little derivative but they could’ve at least sent a form response.

@sungo I still enjoy Perl, but jeez yeah. The nicest phrasing I can think of is “it shows its age.”

@sungo honestly still haven’t given strong types or compilation much of my time, but I understand the appeal.
Currently in Node Land for work. Rust is on the learning list for typed compiled stuff though.
